  1. Agreed. The mobile experience leaves much to be desired. FYI the Reminders feature can be used as a kind of pin. Just set a reminder on the note and it will show up at the top of the list in the Reminders section (as well as below). It will ask you to choose a date and time for the reminder but you can just tap outside of that to just set a reminder with no date. Annoying thing though is that if you have any reminders set with dates those notes will show up above notes that have reminders with no dates. Honestly I think there just needs to be a separate pin function, completely independent of reminders. A pin function that works like the one in Apple notesor Google Keep does.
  2. Well I’ll be damned, thanks for showing me how easy it is to search by stack on mobile. Had no idea! For now, I’m just tagging all of my Journal entries with a Journal tag and excluding them as you suggest. All that typing is cumbersome on mobile, but fortunately, I don’t need this level of filtering as much when I’m on mobile (mostly need it on desktop when I’m running searches with someone using the computer with me). Thank you!
  3. Yeah, I considered that, but that would force me to undo my stack organization. And it wouldn't work at all on mobile, given that you can't limit searches by stack at all. Thank you for the idea, though, I appreciate it!
  4. That's fine. The use cases I'm imagining are to exclude things like Journal entries from appearing in main search results. Or maybe an even easier way to do what I'm trying to do would be to simply allow certain notebooks to be excluded from search results. As it stands, you can't even do something like -notebook:NotebookName. Yes, I realize you can create a tag to apply just to the notes you want to exclude, then exclude with -tag:NoSearch or whatever, but it would also be nice to simply have the ability to exclude it at a global level.
  5. Just jumping on the bandwagon here. Would love to have the ability to password protect at a notebook level. Then have password protected notebooks be excluded from search unless you enter the password to unlock those notebooks. And heck, maybe even also have protected notebook results, even when unlocked, be available (optionally) after the click of a button or link. For example, let's say you have Notebook A, Notebook B, and Notebook C. B and C are protected with different passwords. Notebook A is unprotected. You run a search. Results look like this: Result 1, result 2, result 3, etc. (all from Notebook A). [see results from locked Notebook B] -> click on this and you'll be prompted for a password to unlock notebook B. [see results from locked Notebook C] -> click on this and you'll be prompted for a password to unlock notebook C. In the left column, in the notebooks view, you would see a little lock symbol (like a padlock) next to locked notebooks. When unlocked, the lock symbol padlock would look unlocked. Click on the padlock again and you lock that notebook. On mobile, the experience might be a little different. You might allow the use of a PIN instead of a password, or Touch ID (iOS), face unlock, pattern unlock, etc.
  6. So I read the blog post touting the amazing new iOS 11 Siri integration with Evernote and have been trying to use it but without success. I've enabled Siri for Evernote, and have updated to the latest version of Evernote. I tried telling Siri "Evernote, make a note about blah blah blah" and to my surprise, Siri makes an Apple note, not an Evernote note. I tried all of the suggestions in the blog post. Can anyone help me with this? Am I missing some setting? Edit: Link to the blog post: https://blog.evernote.com/blog/2017/09/19/hey-siri-create-note-evernote/ So the blog post gives the following examples: “Evernote, create a note called Meeting Ideas” “Evernote, add ‘I should bring pizza’ to my Meeting Ideas note” “Evernote, create a list with ‘order lunch’ and ‘make itinerary’” “Show me what I created today in Evernote” Results Example 1 creates an Apple note. Example 2 modifies an Apple note. Example 3 creates an Apple Reminder. Example 4 just opens Evernote. So after trying a few things, I was successfully able to get Siri to create a note in Evernote using this syntax: "Create a note in Evernote" Siri then asks me what I want to put in the note. So I tell it. Then it asks to confirm. Then it creates it. So it seems that the blog post example syntax for Siri to create notes in Evernote is wrong.
  7. Here is a workaround that allows you to keep your existing tag system. What you need to do is first open the note that you want to tag into its own window (e.g. by double-clicking on it in the note list). Then, go back to the main window and click on Tags to show the full list of tags. The search in the full list of tags does partial matching anywhere in the tag, so just type a few characters in (like "apple") and you'll the tags that contain "apple" anywhere in them. Then just click and drag the desired tag(s) from the filtered tag list to the note which is open in the other window. The iOS version of the app behaves the way that you describe, so I'd be willing to bet the Windows version will be updated to follow shortly ..
